Auburn's junior "receiver" accounted for four touchdowns in the SEC opener against Mississippi State -- three rushing and one passing -- and had his first career reception.

"I've said all along he's versatile and can do a lot of different things and now you can see that," offensive coordinator Gus Malzahn said.

Burns four touchdowns all came out of the Wildcat formation, coming on three 1-yard runs and a 13-yard pass to a wide open Philip Lutzenkirchen.

Burns was moved to wide receiver last month after losing out on the starting job to Chris Todd. At the time, he had a lot of questions about his role in the offense. Those questions have certainly been answered through the first two games with Burns not accounting for six total TD's.
